The Neighborhood

Shaw is a beautiful neighborhood, with row homes built in the 1920's. Amazing transit access to the rest of the city, and a lot of restaurant options near the metro and the apartment. Many of my neighbors have been in their homes for 30+ years, and the neighborhood has a small town feel to it, with neighbors saying hello to each other and walking over to chat with each other on their porch.

Getting around

Car: Street parking is available. Please let me know if you plan to bring a car so we can get you a parking pass!

Metro: I am located .4 miles from the Shaw-Howard U metro station (green/yellow lines) es). This is a 6-8 minute walk from the apartment. Noma Metro Station (red line) is also within easy walking distance, .7 miles away.

Bike: There is a Capital Bikeshare dock located at Florida Ave & R St NW, approximately 1/2 block (.05 miles) from the apartment.

Taxi: Taking a taxi can be an economical way to access the apartment, especially if you're traveling in a group. Taxis from downtown will cost about $10-$15, depending on where you're traveling from.

Kyle WardDahl purchased this apartment in 2014

Why Kyle WardDahl chose Washington DC

This apartment was renovated from top to bottom in Fall '14. I spared no expense in this renovation, and couldn't be happier with the end result. The renovation included a top of the line gourmet kitchen with high-end appliances and finishes, as well as beautiful granite and plenty of cabinet space!

The bathroom was renovated to include a large glass shower with rain shower head. It is amazing! This is an amazing space that will please all travelers! A vastly superior option to staying in a hotel when you visit the city!

I run this property by myself, and use the same cleaner EVERY time to turn over the property.

Great spot

We stayed as a family of 4 (me, my wife and 2 kids). Very good location, not a long walk to the subway, very clean, well equipped and modern appartment. Kyle was very helpful and was there when needed. Coffee machine is great - makes a good coffee. Sufficient parking spots in the neighbourhood (make sure you get the guest permit) and avoid blocking the hydrants, which would cost you $50. The only thing is that it is not too big and eating a breakfast at the table is a bit challenging, otherwise really a great spot worth recommending to explore D.C. from.

Nice appartment

We stayed in Kyle's appartment for four nights and cannot complain about anything in the appartment. New appliances, everything we needed was there. Very nice bath with great shower! Internet/WiFi was working without any problems, which we really appreciated. Kyle even brought a new Keurig coffee maker, because the other one seemed to be broken.

We would say it is perfect for two. I wouldn't recommend staying with more people, though.

Regarding the neighborhood: It was okay; however, if you have problems with long walks to the Metro or getting groceries, you should be aware of the distances...about half a mile (1 km) to both.

We didn't mind the walks, except for the departure. To get to the Metro station we took the Metrobus G8, which stops only a few steps from the appartment and was really good to get the luggage to the Metro.

Very convenenient , well priced and located

The owner is very helpful with the information about the place and surroundings The kitchen was well equipped and the washer and dryer worked great, the detergent was provided. The down side is that is was smaller than described, no table to eat on, just had a coffee table, and room for 2 to eat on the sofa. Also, no drawers for our clothes. There were a lot of things provided in the cupboards, like salt, pepper, sugar and other various items. The big food market is quite a trek away, but there is a mini market t and a wine store a short walk away.

Nice!

Super experience, beginning to end. Kyle is a wonderful host, very quick to respond to any questions. He was so helpful & has a smooth, well-organized rental process--lots of clear directions/instructions.The flat was as described and pictured, altho a bit further from the metro station than we expected. (Kyle suggested trying Uber as an alternative & we had great success with that.) Perfect rental for two people, nicely decorated, comfortable bed, great kitchen & bathroom, clean, well-supplied, great internet. We only had a two night stay, but found ourselves wishing it was a bit longer. Thanks, Kyle!

The Perfect Apartment for a Perfect vacation!

If you’re looking for the perfect apartment within easy walking distance (roughly 2 miles) to the national mall, all the museums, monuments, and other attractions look no further. The neighborhood around the apartment, as well as to / from the national mall, is clean and we felt very safe even while walking back home at night. The apartment is perfect for three people. Having a full kitchen, and two groceries stores within a mile and a half of the apartment really helps if you are on a budget. While you probably don’t want to do laundry during your vacation, I must say is was very nice to be able to pack lighter, and not have a bunch of laundry to wash upon returning home. Kyle and his associates were perfect, and went way above to ensure we had a great stay.

LeDroit Park is a wonderful neighborhood. Located in the middle of Washington, D.C., and close to transit and downtown, but with a small-town feel, where neighbors say hello to each other. Neighbors love gathering at the farmers market held every Saturday 1 block from the apartment!

Air mattresses are included by request (along with appropriate sheets, pillows, blankets etc) and can be arranged wherever the guest sees fit. A twin size air mattress easily fits in the living room area.
